During the 2023 offseason, I put together a little metric I called Pesky+ with the intention of trying to encapsulate and enumerate Geraldo Perdomo’s ability to be a pest in the batter’s box. A quick refresher on how I calculate peskiness: I take the total percentage of pitches that a hitter swings outside the zone at and the total pitches that a hitter whiffs on then scale that based on how many pitches a hitter is able to see per time in the box. The idea is that pitchers ideally want hitters to swing at pitches that are outside the strike zone and, when they do swing, the more often a hitter misses, the less of a threat they are.
